How are UK associations, societies, institutions and other professional bodies 
using the Internet? The first in a series of annual surveys has found out. Of the
182 respondents, 82% said that their Web site was funded from internal budgets while
only 9% had funding from commercial partners and only 4% had government funding.
Seven per cent said their Web sites had attracted new members. Unfortunately, although
there were questions on expenditure, budgets and e-commerce applications, there 
was no question on online income generation.

The survey was conducted by Parity Internet, a specialist in Internet solutions 
for associations, in conjunction with Association Manager Magazine, the Cabinet 
Office’s Office of the E-Envoy, and The CBI’s Trade Association Forum.
